What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They allow the site to remember certain information about your visit — such as your language preference or whether you have already acknowledged a notice — so that the site can function smoothly and improve over time.
Cookies do not contain code that could harm your device. You can control cookies through your browser settings (see the browser instructions below), though disabling some cookies may affect how this site works for you.
Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are set in response to actions you take — such as remembering your cookie consent preference. No personal data is collected by these cookies for marketing purposes.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website — which pages are most visited, how long people stay, and where they arrive from. This information is used to improve the site. Data is aggregated and does not identify you as an individual.
Marketing Cookies
These cookies are used to show you relevant information about our services on other platforms. They may be set by third-party advertising services. If you prefer not to have this type of tracking, you can disable them here.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as language or region) and provide a more personalised experience on return visits.
Your Cookie Preferences
Use the toggles above or the buttons below to set your preferences. Your choices are saved to your browser and will be remembered for 12 months.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on this site are set by third-party services rather than by Kinwise directly. These services have their own privacy and cookie policies:
-
Google Analytics — used to understand site usage. Data is anonymised before being passed to Google.
-
Google Maps — embedded on our homepage to show our location. Google may set cookies when you interact with the map.
Cookie Duration
Session cookies
These exist only while your browser is open. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser tab or window.
Persistent cookies
These remain on your device for a set period — typically between one month and two years — or until you delete them manually.
